AFFILIATE INFORMATION
What is an affiliate program?
An affiliate program is a way for companies to
distribute their products and services through a
Sales Network made up of a number of other web sites
i.e. YOU
They pay you to promote their sites and products
on your website or they provide you with a website
page or two of their products and you promote them
and earn from any sales generated.
There are three main types of payments made to affiliates.
-
RS Revenue share. You send a customer and you get a
percentage of what that person spends.
-
CPA Cost Per Acquisition. A flat fee for introducing the
customer.
-
Clicks. You get paid a few cents for
sending a prospective customer
to the company's site whether the customer buys
something or not.
Being an affiliate or a partner to promote an online
program can be as easy as a 1-2-3. You fill up a form and a second later, an
affiliate code is generated and you are ready to go. But, not all affiliate
programs are the same. Therefore, you have to ask questions first before you
join any affiliate program. Do a little research about the choices of program that you
intend to join into. Get some answers because they will be the deciding
point of what you will be achieving later on.
Most affiliate programs being offered today are absolutely free of charge.
Others might require you to be a paid member to participate. However, the
best affiliates are the ones who know the product well and the only way to
know if the product is any good is to buy it.
Your choice of affiliate program should be capable of offering detailed
stats. They should be available online anytime you decide to check them out.
Constantly checking your individual stats is important to know how many
impressions, hits and sales are already generated from your site.
Impressions are the number of times the banner or text link was viewed by a
visitor of your site. A hit is the one clicking on the banner or text links.
Some affiliate sites also pay you just for sending them a visitor. This is
called being paid for clicks or hits. How much will you get paid? 5% - 20%
is the commission paid by most programs. .01% - .05% is the amount paid for
each hit or click.
You need to be confident on the program enough to track those people you
refer from your site. This is the only way that you can get credit for a
sale. The period of time that those people stay in the system is also
important. This is because some visitors do not buy initially but may want
to return later to make the purchase. Many sites put tracking cookies, for
example, on the visitor's computer. When the visitor returns the cookie is
read and if they make a purchase this time it is still credited to you.
Tracking cookies can be set to expire after a certain length of time. You
need to find out how long that sales are credited to you.
Two-tier affiliate programs
Two-tier affiliate programs are by far one of the
best ways to make money with affiliate programs. A
two-tier affiliate program works on two levels.
Example: I sign up to the affiliate program.
I promote the site to customers. In addition I sign
up other webmasters to the affiliate program
and then I get paid on my sales and on their
sales (usually 1% to 5%). Occasionally you come
across three-tier programs and more and up to 10%
